We just went from 0 to dork in 2.8 seconds.


COULD you IMAGINE trying to sync 4 small turbos? I hear it's a beotch to sync 2.

 

My bad. It wasn't VW. It was Owen Developments (But on the same site I came across a quad turbo vw, but it wasn't the one I was thinking of)

Here is the link, sometimes gizmag is a little finicky I hope the link works.

Looking good man.

 

Richard how difficult or expensive would it be to get a new upper intake manifold made out of cast aluminum?

 

That's what we are going to do. I'll tell you how much when it's done.
Now when are you going to answer my queston about the plug ***'y I need for the Motec? I Emailed, I PM'd, you just to busy posting??

 

Rotary Performance sells what you are looking for. It's $200 though. That's the best option. Ours was cheaper but I spent 8 hours redoing it and it still isnt a nice as that one.

You will still need to splice in a loom that connects to the MoTeC.

Cheers,
Hymee.

 

Yes, or whatever else use. Haven't crossed that bridge yet.

The update is that the manifold is on and the blower bracket. The pan is changed and we are about to put in the compressor. Have one part missing and that is a reducing hose for the MAF to TB. Made a mold for it but the molders press was down. Have to wait till Monday for thst now.

I'll take some pictures later and get them off to someone to post. Hope Gomez is around. He's the most often one found.

 

I can do the pics for you if Gomez is at church or something. Blower might look a little different though. Hahaha. Just kidding.

Cheers,
Hymee.

 

But at least it will look like the MoTeC is all hooked up and running. LOL!

 

If anyone is home in Oz then you've got pictures.
Not getting done tonight, tomorrow it will be.
Had to fight getting fitting and hoses and other stuff or it would have been done.

 

richard,
i can take them shrink them and put them up. they just wont be as big as if gomez did them... pm for my email address if you want.

beers

 

I got them, and will post now... Standby Chatsworth, standby world.

 

BTW - Love the tool / parts caddy

 

Nice Engineering RP. real nice.

 

nice job hymee,

i love the fact that you host a fellow competetors photo... this is as it should be....

rp, could you aim the intake inlet so it hits somewhere around the revi exit?????

i know it is not going to happen, but all you can do is say no!!!!

beers

 

Lookin' good


What I want to know is............

.........when RP is going to host and post the latest update of Hymee's twin screw

 

Hyme does WHAT with twins??? Those pictures may be worth $$ on the Internet!!!

 

Richard why such a large pulley? Are you spinning it at the same speed as the engine for no boost until you get an ecu installed?

 

Since when is spinnning it at the same speed as the engine going to give you no boost?? .........I could see not spinning= no boost...but if it's spinning at 7K it sure is going to do something isn't it

 

yummy pictures... more.......more.....MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I'm assuming that braided line is the oil feed? If so, why is it making going all the way to the side of the engine compartment before bending back to the oil filter?

 

You are forgetting the 4:1 internal planetary set. As it sits right now we are using a larger pulley than the max will be but it is still 460% overdrive now.

The oil feed line is going where it does because that is the size hose we had.
I'll shorten it later. I just wanted to drive the car.

Which I did just awhile ago. I can't lean on it yet 'cause we have no managment.
I just want to put some miles on it to see if there are any problems. Plus we havn't finaized the air cleaner yet.

As soon as I can get the pictures out of my camera I'll post them. These are the ready to drive ones.

A lot of these things have to be cleaned up into production parts yet.
Also we wanted to keep all the original hoses intact so we can go to CARB with a "before" car.

 

so you have driven it... very exciting to hear... thanks for the update.

beers

 

Holy Belt Busters Batman!! A RP SuperCharged RX-8 has been on the road!!!!!!!!!!! There IS a God!!
